My existing research mainly focuses on several aspects. The first one is data engineering in wireless communications, which includes data organization, indexing, scheduling, etc. The other direction is applying different artificial intelligence concepts to the software development process. Besides these, I am also interested in data mining and machine learning theories and applications, as well as social networks and crowd sourcing.
